Soapa 2009

Sorry to hear that you won't make it. Did you check on flights into Springfield? It's only a 45 minute drive down to Branson. Might be cheaper than the fuel for the Skymaster, I hate it when that happens but you don't have to fly your own plane just come join in the festivities.

I am hoping to be involved in replacing the engine so I can learn a little. Otherwise, I would still try to come down.

I hope you will take last minute entries. My mistress is undergoing a panel upgrade and annual. I think there is a 50/50 chance she will be ready by the 5th of may. JIM

JIM,

Hope you can make it! There's a link to the registration form in the top paragraph of the SOAPA home page - just click on it, and the details are on the form. See you at Skymaster Happy Hour! :-)

Thanks Paul,
I think some of the guys might be interested in seeing my new panel. I installed Electronics International; Digital M.P & Tach, Digital Oil Temp/PSI, Digital Volts/Amp, and Aerospace Logic; Digital Fuel Level. I originally just wanted the M.P. & Tach, (once you get used to lining your engines up digitally, you will never go back to bouncing needles) and My IA talked me into the others. JIM

Jim,

Friday afternoon during the Fly-In is "show & tell" time at the airpont - we'll look forward to seeing your bird then! You may also be interested is seeing some of the mods the other SOAPers have installed!

There are still 9 rooms left at the Best Western in Branson. This is the location of the 2009 SOAPA Event. Come join us, sign up now. We have a number of aircraft coming in and will be at the same airport as the US Pilots Association and the Missouri Pilots Association. They are all really excited about seeing the Skymasters arrive.

These rooms won't last long with all the events that weekend.
